Spectacle Independence after Cataract Extraction in Post-Radial Keratotomy Patients Using Hybrid Monovision with ReSTOR(®) Multifocal and TECNIS(®) Monofocal Intraocular Lenses

BACKGROUND: We report 2 patients who have undergone radial keratotomy (RK) preceding ReSTOR(®) multifocal intraocular lens (IOL; Alcon, Fort Worth, Tex., USA) implantation in their nondominant eyes and TECNIS(®) monofocal IOL (Abbott Medical Optics, Abbott Park, Ill., USA) in their dominant eyes. ME...

description BACKGROUND: We report 2 patients who have undergone radial keratotomy (RK) preceding ReSTOR(®) multifocal intraocular lens (IOL; Alcon, Fort Worth, Tex., USA) implantation in their nondominant eyes and TECNIS(®) monofocal IOL (Abbott Medical Optics, Abbott Park, Ill., USA) in their dominant eyes. METHODS: Retrospective review of 2 patients who underwent hybrid monovision with ReSTOR(®) multifocal and TECHNIS(®) monofocal IOLs at the time of cataract surgery after a remote history of RK. RESULTS: Implantation of the ReSTOR(®) multifocal and the TECHNIS(®) monofocal IOLs was successful, with no reported adverse events. The patients were able to achieve spectacle freedom. CONCLUSION: We report a novel technique for the management of post-RK patients to optimize their chances for spectacle independence.
